Welcome to FurWell Veterinary Hospital, where our veterinary team uses dental radiographs to uncover hidden dental problems and provide your pet with comprehensive oral health care in Greer, SC.
Dental radiographs, or dental X-rays, are one of the most important tools in veterinary dentistry. The majority of each tooth structure lies hidden beneath the gum line, meaning that problems such as root infections, bone loss, resorptive lesions, and retained roots are invisible to the naked eye. Dental radiographs allow our team to evaluate the entire tooth, including the crown, root, and surrounding bone, providing a complete picture of your pet’s oral health. At FurWell Veterinary Hospital, dental radiographs are taken as a standard part of every professional dental cleaning, ensuring nothing is missed and every treatment decision is based on complete information.
Dental radiographs are taken while your pet is under general anesthesia as part of their dental cleaning appointment. Anesthesia is necessary to properly position the radiograph sensor in your pet’s mouth and to keep your pet still for accurate images.
Our team takes radiographs of all teeth in your pet’s mouth, not just those that appear abnormal on visual exam. This comprehensive approach ensures that hidden problems are identified and addressed.
Dental radiograph findings are reviewed by our veterinary team during the dental procedure. If we identify any teeth requiring treatment such as extraction or other intervention, we discuss our findings and recommendations with you before proceeding.
Studies show that dental radiographs identify significant dental disease in a substantial percentage of teeth that appear normal on visual exam alone. Without radiographs, many serious problems go undetected and untreated.
Dental radiographs allow our veterinary team to make informed decisions about which teeth require treatment, ensuring your pet receives the most appropriate and effective care.
By providing a complete picture of tooth and bone health, dental radiographs help our team avoid removing teeth that can be saved and ensure that teeth that truly need extraction are identified.
Dental radiographs are X-ray images of your pet’s teeth and surrounding bone. They reveal problems hidden below the gum line that cannot be seen during a visual exam, including root infections, bone loss, and resorptive lesions. To schedule, call (864) 292-6433.
Dental radiographs are taken as part of every professional dental cleaning at FurWell Veterinary Hospital. They require general anesthesia and are taken while your pet’s mouth is already open for cleaning.
